Chapter 988: Three Qi Wayne!

In the early years of Formula E, the race, known as the "silent F1" to the outside world, was tepid.

After several years of exploration, Formula E has gradually detached itself from the F1 rules, and in addition to the experience of attracting audiences in Formula 1, it has made some innovations, which are more in line with the gameplay of the younger generation who have just come into contact with motor racing.

For example, the schedule of the sub-stations.

At the beginning of the establishment, in each sub-race, the practice race, qualifying race and the main race will be completed in one day. The practice session lasts for an hour, and the riders can familiarize themselves with the track and are allowed to use maximum power. In qualifying, each driver has 4 laps to get the fastest lap time, so qualifying drivers will use the car's maximum power, while in the race, the driver can only use the car's Eco mode, which uses 130k (181PS) of maximum power. However, in certain areas, the driver can use one-button acceleration (a function similar to the KERS in F1) to enable extreme power to facilitate strategies such as overtaking and defending.

Considering that this is too intensive, this year's event team has been overhauled, separating practice and qualifying for one day. In such a low-intensity event, there are some off-track interactions, such as selecting so-called SUPER drivers based on popularity, and adding buffs to the more popular drivers.

What kind of buff?

It's like the kind of acceleration prop in a go-kart.

And in view of the fact that the vehicle components are designed and supplied by the teams themselves this year, in order to ensure that each team has a similar starting line, some teams with poor battery technology have been integrated. Each driver is required to have two cars.

In this way, it is guaranteed that some drivers can pit and change cars if one car runs out of battery. This can be regarded as a technical support for speeding up. However, in order to ensure safety, there is a minimum waiting time of 30 seconds.

In addition, some changes have been made to the tires.

As a rule, each driver will have two sets of new tyres and one set of used tyres to complete the practice session, qualifying session and race. Unlike Formula 1's tyre change strategy, tyre changes are no longer allowed during pit stops in Formula E races, unless there is a puncture, which will further test the tyre's wear resistance and driver's ability to retain the tyre.

This is also an additional limit on the speed of vehicles after the speed limit is not limited this year.

Other than that, the rules of the game remain largely the same.

The driver and team points system will be used, with drivers points using the FIA points system, with three points awarded to the driver who takes pole position in qualifying and two points to the driver who sets the fastest lap record in the race.

The top three finishers in each race will be awarded a podium and trophy, and at the end of the season, the Constructors' Championship and the Drivers' Championship will be awarded based on points.

It's like F1.

After yesterday's practice and qualifying sessions, today's race price is in the middle of the race. Because most of the races in Formula E are urban circuits, and most of the tracks are designed around some large landmarks, as the first race of the year, it is natural that a considerable number of spectators will gather outside the stadium at this time.

In the shouting, Li Fanyu came to the live broadcast platform of the event after cheering up the team and Lou Lu. I met the celluloid, which had already begun to warm up and began to broadcast the live broadcast camera in real time and introduce the participating teams and drivers.

Seeing Li Fanyu coming, Celluloid smiled proudly, directly picked up a pair of wireless microphones and handed them to Li Fanyu, and pulled them to his side to sit down.

Li Fanyu suddenly appeared, making the live broadcast room instantly boil;

"it! Brother Fan should actually explain!"

"666666666666666! Le Mans' champion goes to sea to make his commentary debut for the first round of Formula E!"

"Father and daughter are commenting on the same stage, looking forward to the ghost animal plot!"

"Father-in-law, please bow to your son-in-law!"

“23333333333!”

Seeing a barrage floating on the big screen in front of him, Li Fanyu waved his hand awkwardly: "Hello everyone." ”

After saying hello, he turned his head to look at celluloid, "Didn't you say that John Wayne and Chixia Toyoda would come?

Celluloid smiled and said, "How dare I fool you, Dad?" look, isn't this coming?"

As soon as her words fell, John Wayne and Toyoda Chixia came to the live broadcast booth one after another.

Under the arrangement of celluloid, Li Fanyu shook hands with the two and said hello, and was arranged to sit together.

Looking at John Wayne's somewhat evasive gaze, Li Fanyu was amused, so he quipped: "Hey, John, I heard that you are developing a new type of battery technology?

The veins on John Wayne's head instantly burst out, "Where did you hear that? We at TSL have our own battery suppliers and technology, and we can't afford to follow the path of yours. ”

Li Fanyu raised his eyebrows, looked at John Wayne's gaze that seemed to be able to wring out water, and said with a smile: "That's the best, John." We have registered all patents for dissolved metal-related technologies. If you really try to do R&D in this area, you might hit your head against the patent wall and your head bleed. ”

John Wayne's fists clenched secretly under the table.

In fact, since the dissolved metal battery data of Zhengxin was obtained by means before, TSL began to develop at any cost. But two months have passed, and there has been no critical progress on the project. In this R&D process, TSL found some technical achievements based on the data when applying for patents......

It's all in and you're the first to sign up!

And the registrant, of course, is the damn Zhengxin!

In order to make a breakthrough in this new battery technology as soon as possible and break the battery advantage of Zhengxin, he worked hard to persuade the board of directors to invest no less than $600 million in this R&D project.

Now it seems that they are all in vain!

This puts a lot of pressure on his boardroom.

Thinking of the cause and effect of the incident, where did John Wayne not understand that he fell into Li Fanyu's trap, was dug by him, and engaged in a patent trap?

At this time, he was ridiculed by Li Fanyu in public, and John Wayne, who has always been arrogant, was already on the verge of breaking out. But in view of the disgraceful means he used before, he fell into Li Fanyu's full set, and he couldn't attack yet.

So the audience before the live broadcast camera saw a very strange scene.

John Wayne, who was originally white, had a green face......

"I'm tired! There must be a story here!"

When celluloid saw this posture, little stars flashed in her eyes.

And in connection with the previous things, Toyota Chixia, who had already guessed what was going on, was stunned for a moment, and his face also showed an expression that seemed to be smiling.

She took a deep look at Li Fanyu and said, "Li Jun, good means." ”

Li Fan smiled foolishly, and said with his head bowed: "Accept!"

At this time, after more than an hour of warm-up preparation, the Formula E Hong Kong Station main race began.

Celluloid put down the thought of digging inside, turned to the three of them and asked: "The three companies they are responsible for have put a lot of effort into electric vehicles recently. Coincidentally, you have all organized a team of teams and participated in FE for several years. So may I ask, in the opinion of the three of them, which team has a greater chance of winning in this sub-station?"

The first question of celluloid will be the three parties of Zhengxin, Toyota, and TSL...... Loaded in!
